We were in Death Valley photographing for several days right before Christmas. Lake Manly, the occasional lake near Badwater, was calling to us, along with a few other more remote locations. The weather was... "interesting." We did get some nice light, but we also worked through some very gray conditions. On the day we left, we got out of the park by the skin of our teeth — we left extremely early in the morning on Christmas Eve day as a storm rolled in. Towne Pass closed shortly after we crossed it (there were already boulders on the road) and much of our route out of the desert featured flooding washes and closed roadways.
We'll be back there, possibly more than once, in February and March.
Here's a photo dump from the trip, heaving on Lake Manly photographs. Enjoy!
(I have shared this in the Canon forum, too since I’m still using my, uh, “classic” Canon 5DsR for landscape photography.)
